🎄 For a magical Christmas. Are you planning to go to Strasbourg for the end-of-year celebrations? Good idea! But first read this program of festivities and our selection of magical hotels.

Au Pain de mon grand-père

58 rue de la Kruteneau offers one of the best pretzels in Strasbourg. This bakery, opened in 2002 by Patrick Dinel, is right in the centre of the Kruteneau district. Motivated by an ardent desire to make “real bread as before”, he was joined by his son, Bruno. Together, they have risen to this challenge in the best possible way. As a result, you will find authentic pretzels in terms of both taste and shape. To achieve this result, the Dinels use equally traditional products and manufacturing processes, such as organic flour and natural sourdough.

Bretzel Burgard

It was in 1935 that this brand’s adventure began. A small bakery initially operated by the Burgard family; it specialized in the manufacture of pretzels in the 1950s. Its acquisition in 2001 marked the beginning of the real success that we know today. Bretzel Burgard is therefore one of the best places to taste delicious, crispy pretzels in Strasbourg, made from organic wheat flour from Alsace. They are knotted in the traditional way by hand on site, within the workshop itself.

L’atelier 116

Poulaillon

Here is another address renowned for the originality of the pretzels found there: the Poulaillon bakery. Or, really, bakeries, because the success of the brand has made it possible for them to expand. It is a family business, in operation since 1973. Founded by Paul Poulaillon, this bakery serves delicious pretzels and much more. Indeed, Paul Poulaillon had the ingenious idea of ​​creating the Mauricette, obtained by reworking the pretzel dough to make a bun which is then filled with charcuterie. The Mauricette has thus become the essential product of this brand.
